Given :

A cistern can be filled by two pipes A and B in 12 minutes and 14 minutes respectively and can be emptied by third pipe C in 8 min

To find :

if all the taps are turned on at the same moment, what part of the cistern will remain unfilled at the end of 7 min

Solution:

A's 1 minute work =\frac{1}{12}

B's 1 minute work =\frac{1}{14}

C's 1 minute work = \frac{1}{8}

Their work together in 1 minute =\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{14}-\frac{1}{8}=\frac{5}{168}

Their work together in 7 minutes= 7 \times \frac{5}{168}=\frac{5}{24}

Remaining work =1 - \frac{5}{24}=\frac{19}{24}

Hence 19/24 part of the cistern will remain unfilled at the end of 7 min
